'Numbers Trivia, 2008'

Brand new year, so maybe a good time for a little change of pace...


* 111,111,111 X 111,111,111 = 12,345,678,987,654,321.


* 2+2 (depending on the characteristics of 2) may often equal
less or more than 4.


* If you were to spell out numbers, how far would you have to go until you would find the letter "A"? (Answer... One thousand).

112?

Dang, let's see ... 1890 to 1999 ... i before e, except after c ... square root of pi ... Let me get back to you!

109?

If 'consecutive' is still defined as "successively following without interruption, continuous"... none.

How do you figure that?

Misread 'ending' as ending digit. So I'll go with 101 (1899 to 1999).

Ending with 1999, how many consecutive years had a 9 in them?

Mistaken again... 111 (1889 to 19999).

That depends on the language.

okta = 1 (North Sami)
futatsu = 2 (Japanese)
kaksi = 2 (Finnish)
quatre = 4 (French)
acht = 8 (German)
atten = 18 (Norwegian)
